"The AudioQuest Forest is a nifty performer. Images display detailed, well-defined edges, while contrasts are luxurious yet refreshingly natural. This cable's supple motion and marked lack of noise are also worthy of note. Sonically, the AudioQuest has an open, smooth audio that packs a taut, well-formed bass"

All AudioQuest HDMI cables up to 10m are rated High Speed with Ethernet. From 12m to 20m AudioQuest HDMI cables are Standard Speed with Ethernet.

High Speed

All AudioQuest HDMI cables up to 10m meet or exceed the 10.2 Gbps maximum data rate for HDMI and are approved High Speed with Ethernet cables. This means that all AudioQuest cables up to 10 meters are capable of transmitting 100% of the data required for all of HDMI’s current audio/video features including multichannel high-resolution audio, 1080p and 4k video, and 3D video from Blu-ray. All AQ HDMI cables will deliver 100% of the data required for 120Hz/240Hz/600Hz displays.

Insulation

Any solid material adjacent to a conductor is actually part of an imperfect circuit. Wire insulation and circuit board materials all absorb energy (loss). Some of this energy is stored then released as distortion. Forest HDMI uses air filled foamed Polyethylene insulation because air absorbs next to no energy and Polyethylene is low-loss and has a benign distortion profile. Thanks to all the air in Foamed-PE, it causes much less of the out-of-focus effect common to other materials.

Silver Conductors

Solid 0.5% silver conductors eliminate strand interaction distortion and reduce jitter. Solid silver-plated conductors are excellent for very high frequency applications, like HDMI audio and video. These signals, being such a high frequency, travel almost exclusively on the surface of the conductor. As the surface is made of high-purity silver, the performance is very close to that of a solid silver cable, but priced much closer to solid copper cable. A cost effective way of manufacturing quality HDMI cables.
